Annual Prize
Assuming continuation of funding, the User Group awards an annual "JSA Thesis Prize" for the best Jefferson Lab related thesis in a given calendar year. The prize includes a monetary award and travel to the Annual User Group Meeting (typically in June of the following year), where the prize is awarded and the winner gives a presentation on her or his research.
The deadline for submission of nominations for any given year is usually in late January of the following year. (For the 2011 competition, the tentative deadline is January 31, 2012). A complete package requires a nomination letter by a senior scientist giving the name and institution of the person being nominated and the names of three people who will send letters of recommendation, along with a copy of the thesis, preferably electronically. Stay tuned for further details about the 2011 thesis prize.
